Keeping Your Teen Driver Safe in Punta Gorda, FL

How Teen Driver Technology Keeps Your Teen Safe

Nobody wants to be a helicopter parent, but letting your young driver go off on their first solo drive can be a nerve-wracking experience. Chevrolet can help relieve some of that stress via its Teen Driver Technology, which acts like a helping hand for inexperienced drivers.

Teen Driver Technology Defined

Teen Driver Technology is an advanced suite of safety and driver assistance features designed to encourage safe driving habits in your teen driver. While it shouldn’t – and won’t – replace the voice of a parent in your child’s head, it can mimic parental strategies to encourage your young driver toward better behavior on the road.

What Features are Included in Teen Driver Technology

• Speed Limit Reminder: You can set the speed limit of your Chevy. If your teen exceeds that speed limit, they receive an audible and visual reminder to reduce their speed.
• Buckle to Drive: Ever have the “We’re not going anywhere ‘til you put on your seat belt!” conversation with your child? Your Chevy won’t shift out of park for 20 seconds, prompting the driver to buckle up.
• Driver Report Card: This feature provides detailed reports on your teen’s driving habits, including distance traveled, maximum speed, stability control, antilock brake events, and forward collision alerts.
• PIN Protection: You can hide the Teen Driver Safety settings behind a PIN code to ensure your teen can’t disable or alter them.
